#VARIABLESV Built-In Function

Use #VARIABLESV to obtain the names of some or all of the variables in your home

directory and to put them into a variable level, each name on a separate line. The

selection criteria are the same as for #VARIABLES.

BREAKPOINT

specifies that only those variable levels for which debugging breakpoints have

been set are to be listed.

specifies that only the “I/O variables” (variable levels used by processes,

requesters, and servers) are to be listed.

variable-level

is an existing variable level that is to receive the names of the variables. The

names are placed in the variable level one per line, in an unspecified order.

Result

#VARIABLESV returns nothing.

Considerations

•

Placing a list of variables in variable-level causes its previous contents, if

any, to be lost.

•

This function is most useful when a very large number of variables causes the

#VARIABLES function to produce a “text buffer overflow” error.

•

To obtain the names of variables as the result of a function call, use the

#VARIABLES built-in function.

#VARIABLESV [ / { BREAKPOINT | IO } / ] variable-level
